Abstract
In 2016, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the foundation of the University of Sydney’s Institute of Criminology, Australia’s oldest surviving independent centre of criminological teaching and research. And in 2017, we celebrate 50 years since the establishment of the Australian and New Zealand Society of Criminology. Having observed and participated in both of these historic events, this chapter contains some personal reflections about their importance and significance, and the subsequent development over succeeding decades of the discipline of criminology in our region of the world.
